can the m3820dw media tray be used to print on 65lb cardstock.

The printers' multipurpose tray supports media of up to 58 lbs. weight, which offers more printing choices for professional documents. Labels, cards, covers and envelopes can be printed using the multi-purpose tray with ease. This ability virtually eliminates the time it takes to feed sheets one at a time.

Rolf, I use it to print greeting cards on my Lexmark printer - so I would say yes.

Sorry, but I didn't try it with card stock. It fed regular paper just fine, but the tray required reconfiguring for anything not letter size, and, along with being big, complicated, and generally unhandy, it didn't fit in here and I sent it back.

Yes, it can. I envy you have this model. I enjoyed mine except for the poor quality of the top feed tray. When I had to replace my printer I found it was no longer availability so I had to choose another model.

I'm not sure what the spec is but I can print on Business card stock but anything thicker than that will jam. Even business card stock does not separate well when feeding. That is on the MG 5520 model.

Maybe. Firstly, many inkjet printers are designed for home use, so they don't accept paper larger than 8 1/2 x 11 in the tray. These are 12 x 12 sheets. You can cut it down, but rough or uneven edges is asking for a printer jam. Second, you'll have to make sure your printer can accept cardstock, because this is twice as thick as regular printer paper, and sending stuff that's too heavy for a printer to handle can seriously damage it. And last, but not least, this plastic is completely slick on both sides. Ink may not transfer or hold very well on it. All in all, I would suggest you look at finding some 8 1/2 x 11 transparency film like the kind they (used to) sell for overhead projectors before considering this as an option. A lot of those are specifically designed for inkjets.

Card stock works fine from the rear sheet feeder but not from the tray, of course. You get pretty good quality if you tell the printer you're using "matte photo paper" instead of "plain paper".

Yes it can, from the top cartridge. The bottom cannot feed card stock. I load the regular paper in the lower tray, card stock in the upper and set the defaults on our computers as the lower tray so I can print thick stock whenever I want.

I've never tried it. But what would be the advantage since your tray of copy paper only holds 8.5 x 11 paper you couldn't print the entire contents of an 8.5 x 14 document.

The manual says it can handle up to 68 lb. stock, using their printer properties menu setting for "thick paper." I have used 67 lb paper (sometimes called "cover stock") with no trouble. This can be used for business cards, but they are more commonly printed on 80 lb. stock.

I print, using the bottom tray - 8.5 x 11 size paper - 110lb cardstock all the time with no issues whatsoever. Does a wonderful job. I do feed each sheet of cardstock in one at a time tho.

This printer does a great job with Cardstock, however you need to use the Multi-purpose tray for feeding, and open the rear access to make sure your cardstock won't curl.

I haven't tried it, but card stock isn't too much thicker than photo paper stock so you should be able to

I've used STAPLES brand poster board to print woodworking patterns and the iP8720 had no problem with it. The package doesn't say what weight it is but it's quite heavy.

Yes; the specification page on Dell's website [ http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/productdetail.aspx?baynote_bnrank=0&baynote_irrank=0&c=us&cs=19&l=en&s=dhs&sku=225-4112&~ck=baynoteSearch ] indicates "thick" and "Cover" paper types. I've used the manual tray to print postcards, business cards, and envelopes without issue; I wasn't printing huge batches, so your mileage may vary. As long as you stick to card stock for laser printers, you should be good.

Yes I have. Neenah purchase certain items from Wausau and this works very very as it is 65 pound and very white and makes lovely greeting cards. I ghighly recommend it. It may be important that you verify with your printer manufacturer that your printer can accommodate this paper weight. Most HP can; notwithstanding you may have an issue were you using CANON for example-because not all of their models will

I defer to the previous answer. I agree that the feed path won't handle card stock. I've operated ofset presses which will handle card stock. Their feed function loads flat and feeds flat to and out of the impression cylinder group. My 8600 handles standard mailing envelopes flawlessly. I wouldn't try anything more complex than that. Just remember, its' feed path. The stock has to bend 180 degrees.
